SUMMARY:The dark side
DESCRIPTION:The dark side\nDr. Miguel Ángel Sánchez Conde\n\nWhat's the d
 ark matter made of? Do we have any idea of the kind       of particle that
  should constitute ~85% of the matter content of       the Universe? In th
 is talk, I will briefly explain the properties       that such a particle 
 might have and will present some of the       proposed candidates that ari
 se from beyond the Standard Model of       particle physics. Next stop wil
 l be to give an overview of the       present status of dark matter s
 earches, mainly focusing on       gamma-rays. There is a tremendous effort
  currently ongoing that       involves an impressive battery of experiment
 s both at the lab and       observatories around the world.\nIn a second p
 art,  the importance of N-body cosmological       simulations for the
  understanding of how dark matter halos form       and evolve from the ear
 ly Universe will be discussed. At this       point, some problems arise th
 at it's worth mentioning and that       will hopefully lead to debate.
